Accused at work!!! tracking software

Please help me! I am very computer ignorant. Today I was pulled in to my manager's office and accused of surfing the web. Yes, I do look at wunderground.com for the weather. There are many popups that come up with this. I tried to explain that this is the reason it looks like I am surfing. They said, "No, these are actual sites you are on." I am not!!! I am not looking up home mortgages, theme park tickets, etc. I don't know how they are tracking, etc. but please help me with a defense for this. Noone else has access to this computer but me. I don't log in to access. Please help me explain to them why this is happening.

I'm afraid I can't help with the defense, just some advice.

1.) If you don't log in to the computer, how do you know no one else has access to it? You should set up so you do have to log in.

2.) Stay away from wunderground.com; is checking the weather really worth risking your job?
